“One never wants to do anything that's going to break that 'sculpture of the character' that's been done so far, or make anything that's been done so far become illogical in any way, so you always want to try to connect when you're doing a series of films that has a continuous character.” WayWantTryingDoneCharacterFilmBreakSeriesSculptureIllogical Author:Tobin Bell
“All I can do is do my best work, try to create the best kind of moment to moment reality that I can do. That's what I do. I'm an actor. And all the rest of it is like baseball. You hit the ball. Sometimes it goes in the hole. Sometimes it goes to the player.” TryingKindI CanSometimesMomentsRealityActorsCan DoPlayerBaseballBallsHolesBest Work Author:Tobin Bell
“I've worked with multiple directors throughout the 'Saw' series with a lot of conversations as they bring their particular installment to the screen. If I've been able to do anything throughout the course of these films, it's been to help shape dialogue and to try to make things as delicate and as intelligent as I can.” IfsTryingI CanHelpingAbleFilmCoursesSawsParticularShapesDirectorsConversationIntelligentSeriesScreensDialogueDelicateMultiple Author:Tobin Bell
“I try to think of acting in terms of thinking and doing. People think of it as, "Oh, let's get inside this guy." They think that acting is being, or feeling, or emoting. It's as much doing. One of the first things you do as an acting student is ask, "Can you say words and do a task at the same time, like sweep a floor?" You get to watch the human condition, and there's always a "doing" aspect of it. This couple, they're carrying backpacks, where are they going? Students? Or are they carrying instruments? It stimulates the imagination. So acting is doing ... and I forget how we got off on that.” PeopleThinkingTryingFeelingsGuyTermImaginationForgetActingStudentsCoupleHuman Condition Author:Tobin Bell
